Title: Forehead twitching
Post by Rob73 on Jun 14th, 2009 at 9:25am
Recently I've noticed a twitching on the flesh on my forehead. Like a nervous tic sort of thing.  Its on the same side I have my CH's.  It happens though in between attacks.

I wonder if there's any link to the headaches?  Anyone else experienced this?

Not me - only my eye twitches ... on the affected side, not so much between cycles, but it often is a sign that a cycle is starting to build.

No.

And I don't know if they're linked to the headaches or not. Based on the responses here, it seems they might be.

i always get the eye twitch after going to the dentist. My grandma told me when your eye twitches it means a tooth problem.I asked 3 different dentist about this and none of them had ever heard of that. But sure enough next visit to the dentist i would have the eye twitches again. I've been chronic for 10 years and last time i went to the dental hygienist i had a tooth that had been bothering me occasionally off and on for several years. (would bleed when i flossed). She shot some antibiotics up under my gum and after about 2 months I've never had another cluster headache since then. And i no longer get the eye twitches when i visit the dentist. I might of just got lucky and quit having these damn headaches but i think there was some infection under 1 of those gums that was pushing on a nerve somewhere causing these horrible headaches. Only time will tell, but its been a year now and no headaches, no meds. Before i couldn't go 1 day without the preventatives without getting nailed. Just something to consider for everyone out there.
